Diane Wright Poems
Little boys are made of snails and puppy dog tails
But fathers are made of concern and love
Ready to give aid when the going is rough
Or be a throwing partner with a baseball and glove.
...
I had to put you to sleep
It broke my heart to witness your pain
I felt it better to let you go than hang on
Neither of us would have anything to gain.
...
A small brown church sits by the road
Unobtrusive, silent, with memories in store.
The old structure drab in color, yet bold
Was painted brown during the great Civil War.
...
There once was a 4th Century saint named Nicholas
Born near Myra, near Egypt, Greece and Rome
He came from one of the city’s wealthiest families
Not spoiled by riches, but loved to give, it is known.
...
They met by sheer fate
Friendship blossomed, and like the tide
Came in quickly, and they were joined
Never to part, staying side by side.
...
The raven searches for food to consume.
He flies high and low,
Yet none does he find.
He thinks this is not a very good sign.
...
A figure of beauty outlined in white
Catching rays of light so bright
Her face angelic and so serene
Radiance before I've never seen.
...
The leaves are changing colors; red, orange, brown and green.
There is a hint of winter cold weather soon to draw near,
Yet the beauty of God's handiwork makes a landscape serene.
His workmanship says within us we have nothing to fear.
...
The snow is rapidly falling
People scurrying in a fuss
To complete the shopping list
In time for the Christmas rush.
...
Diane Wright Biography
I learned only a couple of years ago that I have a cousin by the name of T.S. Elliot, who is well-known for his poetry, so I began writing poetry as a hobby. It has been well received, and I have been published in books of anthology in the International Library of Poetry, Owings Mills, Maryland as well as Noble House in New York City, with offices in London, England and Paris, France. I have two boys, Aaron and Eric who are 38 and 34 years, respectively. I am divorced and live with my white cat, Zoe, in Springfield, Virginia, outside of Washington, DC. I work as an Administrative Assistant for a military research and development firm in Alexandria, VA.)

What Are Fathers Made Of?
Little boys are made of snails and puppy dog tails
But fathers are made of concern and love
Ready to give aid when the going is rough
Or be a throwing partner with a baseball and glove.
Fathers are made of compassion too
Shown in a different way from Mom’s pure heart
She is emotional and may cry a lot
Dad just listens with wisdom to impart.
Yes, wisdom that comes from ages ago
Lived through his father and generations before
Stories he relates are sure to fix what ails
Pulling the right story from his wisdom in store.
Fathers are strong to stand in defense of family
With God, strength imparted to withstand the fight
Likened to a mighty ship with God at the helm
Strife is overcome and at the end, there is light.
“Daddy’s little girl” is sugar and spice to small ears
Special to Dad in tomboyish pranks, frills or lace
Feminine wiles displayed to win over Daddy’s heart
Tilting her head with clown-like expressions on her face.
Fathers are the light of our lives
Along with God, shining the way in the darkest of nights
Helping to ready a small life who, too, will be called
To be a beacon of light to their own before flight.
